Actually, you can get the (2) 10MM nuts off the studs with the headlight assembly still installed. The inboard nut is fairly easy to access, the outboard one is a little interesting to get to. I ended up raising the headlight using the manual turn knob and then reaching in with a short extension and loosening the nut. Word of caution - when raising the headlight manually, STOP as soon as you feel any resistance, else you run the risk of damaging the internal mechanism - dony ask how I know!!

If you manually raise the headlight you might want to disconnect the blue wire that connects at the headlight assembly. This disarms the Down function so you don't accidentally get your hand smashed if it chooses to go down on its own.
